CHICAGO, May 31.-Receipts of wheat to-day
| were even larger than was expected, and esti-
| mates also promised unusually large arrivals;
| Heavy rains were also bearish influence, and
| the clique apparently had everything against
| them. They were prepared, however, and q
| large number of June shorts, who undertook
| to buy in their stuff easily to-day, had to pay
higher prices for It. Early in the day the clique
| concentrated their efforts on the support of
| June but were aided very materially in sus
| tanning the price of June by large short In
| terest among the crowd who undertook to cover,
| thereby bidding the price up on themselves
| June started at SS16c, and In less than fifteen
minutes sold to Soc. Other options opened
barely steady, July being unchanged at S516c
In the course of the first hour June eased off to
| SS1sc but July, which received some support
| from the clique, sold up TO 65esG S5&c An in
| crease of 900 bushels in the visible supply
| was something of a surprise to the crowd, as a
| slight decrease had been looked for. However,
| as there was but little trading, July only de-
clned TO 858Sc, and continued between that
| figure and S634c throughout the morning SEES
sion. June was still Ss1@c at the close of the
| morning session. General covering Of shorts"
on the afternoon board induced higher figures
| on that option. July advanced to and closed at
| SEC June also closed fraction higher at SS34c.
July corn opened easier at 391Sc. Toward the
| close OF the forenoon corn was very weak,
| owing to estimated receipts of $50 cars for to-
| morrow, and a small decrease in the visible
| supply The crowd were selling on the hypo-
thesis that at the present rate at which corn is
arriving the visible supply will show no increase
| at all next week. July sold down to $3.50.
During the afternoon it was more steady, and
closed higher at 39lsc. Provisions opened firmer.
July lard sold at So 511p. July ribs at 81 1711.
Toward the close of the morning session provis-
| ions became weaker. July ribs sold down TO 81 %
| and July lard to SO 47Iac. July ribs closed for
the day at 81 ora and July lard at Sc So
